I first came across Dutch designer, Marlies Blaauw's wire work when I featured her detailed wire wrapped heart pendant in this past post.  But her shop, Atelier Blaauw, really shows her skill at making meticulous pieces.  She is self taught and said, "I'm a perfectionist, I want to have my jewelry perfect and solid." It shows.

She makes a lot of modern wire earrings working in sterling, fine silver, gold filled wire and gemstones.

Many of her earrings look minimalist in style but every piece has been beautifully finished.  My favorites are shown below which include heart riser earrings, treble clef earrings and this chained heart studs - notice the second chain connecting the earring back? Clever.









Treble Clef Earrings


Safety Pin Earrings in Rose Gold

Heartbeat Earrings

She is also an accomplished metal smith.  Shown here are two of her unicorn pendants. They demonstrate her ability to make complex designs as well as more minimalist ones.
